Common Folds

Special Folds

When the gluing unit is in use, the grain of the paper must always run parallel to the strip of glue; otherwise, waviness will inevitably result.

When used in combination with the edge-trimming unit, products can finally be head and tail trimmed with a rotary trimmer provided that not too high a quality is being aimed for in the trim.

Special gate fold buckle plate required

For technical reasons, the two flaps folding in the centre of the sheet must each be set back at approximately inch from the middle, for a total of at least inch. The larger the gap, the easier folding becomes.

Five or six directional gate fold requires a special layout. Please ask for information.

Note:

For higher quality and a better precision, it is preferable to fold with the grain of the paper.

All paper exceeding a thickness of 0.007 in. (7-pt) should have a crease (score) at the fold.

The weight and thickness of the paper can modify all above-mentionned specifications.
